June 15, 1912
Title Fights
LH (WBA/C) - Jack Dillon (CH) (26-0) got an easy TKO8 over AABU champ Seamon Johnson (11/16). Johnson got the shot thanks to 6 straight wins, but he was clearly overmatched. Dillon cut Johnson over the right eye in the first. Dillon landed 300 to Johnson's 75 and won nearly every second of every round.
I had Dillon up 70-63 at the stoppage. The win puts him 8 away from Ryan's streak of 34 wins.
LW (AABU) - Arthur Douglas (48/36) (18-7-1) won the AABU LW title in his third try at it, scoring a TKO9 over Mike Ward (39/53)(14-3-2).
It was a very close bout until the 9th when Ward suffered cuts over the left eye and on the mouth which caused the doctor to stop the fight. I had Ward ahead 77-76 at the stoppage.
